In the specified order. Using multiple relayhosts is rare, using
them randomly even rarer.

Perhaps you can mis-use sender_dependent_default_transport_maps:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
sender_dependent_default_transport_maps =
# Put real sender-dependent lookup tables before
# the randmap hack.
randmap:{smtp:[host1]:port1, smtp:[host2]:port2}
If you need a weighted distribution use something like:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
sender_dependent_default_transport_maps =
# Put real sender-dependent lookup tables before
# the randmap hack.
randmap:{smtp:[host1]:port1, smtp:[host1]:port1, smtp:[host2]:port2}
